Sewage outlets within 3 km

Filter by the latest company report. The map follows the filters. This is a location search, not a list of outlets proven to affect Seaham Hall Beach, and it does not include every possible source of pollution.

Filters apply to the map and list. Recent stops need a current report and a recorded stop time. They do not show whether water is safe.

Before you visit

  1. Open the official bathing-water profile for current advice.
  2. Read local signs and check local conditions.
  3. Use the Swim Healthy guidance to reduce open-water risks.

Designation and a map point do not establish parking, lifeguard cover, access or a safe route. A stopped overflow report does not mean that the bathing water is safe.

Questions about Seaham Hall Beach

Is Seaham Hall Beach safe to swim in today?

What does the Seaham Hall Beach classification mean?
The annual classification meets the Good class. The Environment Agency sets the class from water samples taken over several bathing seasons, not from a single visit.
Has the water quality at Seaham Hall Beach changed?
The rating was Good in 2025, the same as in 2024. We hold standard classifications for 5 years, from 2021 to 2025. The table above lists every year in the record.
Are there sewage outlets near Seaham Hall Beach?
13 outlet records fall within 3 km of the monitoring point. The nearest is CSO New Drive Recreation Ground, about 1 km away. Distance alone does not show whether an outlet affects this water.
Which outlets near Seaham Hall Beach are linked to a live feed?
12 of the 13 nearby records are matched to a monitor in a company live feed. A link does not mean the monitor is working now. Use the status filters above to check the latest report and its date. A stopped report does not mean the bathing water is safe.
